Wait, so in all these years that Europeans have been making fun of dumb Americans for having a two party system, and for having no real left wing options, the UK has been basically the same?
In case anyone looks here, I am the artist formerly known as Zero22xx. I want to retire this almost decade old handle now, so I’ll probably be trying different display names and vibes over the next couple of months.

So did this UK “centre-left” party turn out to be a Trojan horse or what? They’ve dismantled trans rights. They plan on using AI thought police to ‘predict’ future crimes and criminals. And now they want multibillion corporations to have free access to anyone’s work without compensation.
If I hadn’t looked this political party up on Wikipedia, by this point I would be assuming that they’re a bunch of conservative wankers on Elon Musk’s payroll.
Don’t count on it. I’m sure they’ll fit right into a trailer park in Alabama. But don’t expect people who are going to make your society a better place for all to live in or anything. I wouldn’t even trust the ones who are interested in going to Democrat run Minnesota, as the article says. They’ll just help the Republicans take control there next time.
Not that I would wish them on the Americans but I hope that more fuck off from this country soon. We’ll all be better off here if every dumb fuck racist meat head that misses the old days would just go away. I’m sick of the second hand embarrassment and being associated with these fucking confederate inbred hillbillies just because of my skin colour. And I’m sick of religious, patriarchal, macho bigots.
So, sorry for the USA that they’ll now be your problem but this is good news to me.
You’re onto something here. I’m starting to get more and more convinced that the only way to get the majority of Americans voting for reasonable people is if those people are ex reality TV stars and talk show hosts and shit. They need to assemble a team of Oprah Winfrey, Ricki Lake, Judge Judy, Guy Fieri, that asshole from the cooking shows, maybe Simon Cowell is free.
Then these people will forget all about concepts like ‘meritocracy’ and buy endless funny hats, foam fingers and Oprah™ brand bibles and be starstruck all the way to the voting booths.
Lol so is this just a thing with Facebook advertising these days? Last time I went on a couple of months ago, it kept advertising the exact same cardigans to me over and over but from different ‘shops’. There were even two with completely different shop names that had the same sob story about a “going out of business sale”, complete with crying face reactions as if life long fans of this shop were sad about the news.
I find it kinda funny in a way. Here’s the social media powerhouse Meta making advertising central to their business but they can’t even bother doing a little quality checking and not letting it be flooded with obvious fake shops that can’t even do deception and trickery right.
